NOTES

[1]
Mass and weight are NOT the same thing but can be measured in the same
units, which can sometimes lead to confusion between them. When you put
an object on a scale, you are measuring its weight, not its mass.

[2]
Mass is the measure of the physical substance contained in something while
the weight is the downward force or pressure imparted by local gravitation
to the mass.   An object's weight may change with location even though its
mass remains constant.

[3]
All computed conversions are based on the EXACTLY defined standard SI units.

[4]
The extended decimal precision is for theoretical computations and decimals
are truncated (not rounded off) at a maximum limit of 68 decimals.
